10 games to movies conversion tries

2- The Sims

Like “Spore,” the appeal of “The Sims” is in customizing your world. The film’s producer has said that having infinite power (as “Sims” players do) will be central to the film’s theme – as will the dangers of wish fulfillment. Twentieth Century Fox will be releasing this one as well.

Copies sold: Over 104 million

1- Battleship

This might be the easiest game to imagine a big screen adaptation of, given its wartime themes. Peter Berg, director of “Hancock,” will direct the Universal-backed film, with a focus on a five-ship fleet caught in an intense battle. It will hit theaters next summer.
